Video shows Offset in Paris street brawl with French rap crew
The fight is rumoured to be over a recent collaboration with French rapper Gazo
by Liberty Dunworth · NMENew footage has shown Offset getting into a street brawl during his trip to Paris.
Footage obtained by TMZ showed the Migos rapper getting involved in a street fight by the Hôtel du Collectionneur during a recent trip.
In the clip, the artist is seen getting out of an SUV, before a group of men approach him and his crew. Various people, including the rapper’s security, are seen trying to settle the tension, however it seems that the events spiralled when someone put their hands on Offset.
From there, the group began shouting and throwing punches, and Offset was heard in the background insisting that the security guards let him go. Soon after, he managed to move away from the security guard and kick a member of the group.
According to a recent report by Complex, the two groups were soon separated, with Offset and his crew paced inside the lobby of the hotel, while the others remained outside. Police reportedly arrived at the scene soon after, but no arrests were made.
The rapper has yet to comment publicly about the events that unfolded, however numerous outlets including TMZ, Stereogum and Complex have reported that the brawl may be related to Offset’s recent collaboration with French rapper Gazo. An insider told TMZ that the latter’s team had paid a reported fee of $150,000 (£118,700) for a video shoot, but were left unhappy by the finished product.
